When your employees are healthy, your business can thrive. Catching or avoiding problems before they become serious is one of the ways we maximize the health of your workforce and minimize health care costs. And when your employees need specialized care, we bring highly qualified care teams together to return them to health.
On the road to recovery, a member’s personal doctor leads the way. Kaiser Permanente doctors practice Permanente Medicine — using evidence-based treatment and innovative technology to deliver personalized care. And our integrated model means doctors aren’t burdened by the business of running a practice — so they can focus on what’s best for our members. Our physicians are empowered to make important care decisions, but our members’ voice is always the most important one in the room.
Kaiser Permanente has one of the nation’s largest multispecialty medical groups. Our highly skilled, experienced specialists in oncology, cardiac care, perinatology, and other specialty care disciplines are among the best in the world. Our doctors and specialists deliver coordinated care that’s supported by industry leading research, advanced medical technology, top-notch facilities, and efficient workflows, tools, and systems.
Specialty care is connected to everything we do, from preventive screenings and doctor visits to follow-up care and ongoing condition management. Unlike most plans, we offer all these services in one seamless, integrated system. Our coordinated care teams have instant access to a member’s electronic health record, enabling them to think and act as one.
Every Kaiser Permanente member has unique care needs. When a member is diagnosed, their primary care physician works with specialists and the member to create a tailored treatment plan. They coordinate across locations and specialties to deliver seamless, effective care.
We’re passionate about constantly improving health care. When one of our doctors or researchers develops a better way to treat an illness, we share this knowledge across the organization. Kaiser Permanente includes 8 regional research centers. In 2017 alone, we were involved in 2,540 research studies — half of which were clinical trials. This gives our members access to state-of-the-art treatment.

Kaiser Permanente physicians are passionate about delivering excellent specialty care.
“My philosophy of care is that the best way to take care of a patient is to care about the patient, which is why I joined the Kaiser Permanente family.”
“I truly believe it is a privilege to practice medicine, and it is an honor to be part of my patients’ lives. I strive to treat each of my patients as I would treat my own family and friends. I absolutely love what I do, and I know this is my path in life — and my way of doing good in this world.”
“I chose pediatrics as a specialty because I get to interact with kids all day — what could be better than that? I feel very fortunate to be here at Kaiser Permanente because I can practice prevention-focused, patient-centered care, while also conducting relevant research.”
“I love taking care of babies and helping families who have an infant in the neonatal intensive care unit. I have a special interest in the long-term care and follow up of neonatal intensive care unit graduates. My research in fellowship was on language development in preterm infants.”
“I have been interested in women’s health since I was a teenager and saw the challenges many of my peers faced surrounding teen pregnancies. I decided to pursue a career in health care to help promote the value of positive role models, personal support and acceptance, and access to accurate information, all of which can affect a woman’s health.”
“Evidence-based medicine and providing quality of care have always been at the center of my daily practice. I believe in providing every patient with safe and compassionate care. A patient story is personal and requires an understanding of the individual as a whole. Empowering the patient with knowledge and walking them through their journey with compassion and respect leads to shared-decision making and a healthier and happier patient.”
“I enjoy working with the families, alleviating some of their fears and putting them at ease.”
“I chose to pursue medicine a long time ago, likely stemming from my passion for teaching and the potential to make a real difference in people’s lives. Cardiology has been a perfect fit for me, allowing me to focus on preventive strategies and further exposing me to sophisticated diagnostic tests to help people feel better.”
